I think star rods is made in Florida and is still in business,,, :D but that's all I know,,,,,,, ;D
I have several star rods like you described. I'm no expert on them but I believe the deluxe denotes fuji guides. The number system is the model number. The number also can tell you the power of the rod but I haven't figured out how they relate. Most of the older handwritten models were gator blanks. They are good durable rods. Joe

The high end ones still made in USA are made in NC with the rest now made in china. As far as chinese rods go they're pretty great though.
